Lawnscaping Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Lawnscaping blog hop!   I hope you've just come from Anni's blog - I love her cardmaking style!

The theme is Lawnscaping+caffeine=happiness! Here's what I came up with:

For the main coloured panel, I used the "Stitched Hillside Borders" dies from Lawn Fawn, and the "Stitched Mats: Squares" die from Lil' Inkers, along with the "Morning Cup" stamp set from Stampin' Up.  I used a couple of Copic markers to colour the mug, and then covered it in Glossy Accents. The coloured cardstock is all from my stash of offcuts, and I added some enamel dots as a finishing touch.

A  big HUGE thank you to our amazing sponsors,  Lawn Fawn, Ellen Hutson, The Ink Road, Crafters Companion, Spectrum Noir, The Alley Way Stamps, Newtons Nook, Faber Castell and Right at Home!  And a big thanks also go to Laurel Beard, who has organised this blog hop - awesome job! 

We'd love it if you left a comment at each of the stops on the hop - because there are prizes to be won! YAY!  

Now, make sure you continue along on the hop - your next stop is Lydia's blog - I can't wait to see what she has created!  If you get lost at any stage, here's a list of the hoppers!
